Five Must-Have Gadgets for Your Smartphone

As we move into an era where 77% of Americans own a smartphone, it’s clear that the mobile age is in full swing. Smartphone ownership spreads across all demographics and only continues to show signs of growth. Where it used to be that the phone was really all you needed, today there are all kinds of gadgets you can get that enhance its features and functionality.

So what are the gadgets that you really need? Here we’ll take a look at the top five gadgets that smartphone users simply can’t do without.

Earbuds

According to stats, 64% of smartphone users rely on their device to listen to music, while 54% watch videos on their phone. What this means is that if you’ve got sound playing, it’s not always okay to have that sound blasting for all to hear. A high-quality set of earbuds will allow you to listen to all your music and videos in privacy without sacrificing the sound quality.

Now because earbuds can be a bit stiff and uncomfortable, you may also want to grab a pair of earbud covers. Look for something in a memory foam so it is soft and conforms to the shape of your ear. This means the earbud will also fit snugly, giving you the best sound quality.

Selfie Sticks

If you’ve ever taken a selfie before, which let’s face – who hasn’t, then you need a selfie stick. These handy little gadgets allow you to securely place your phone in it and then using the arm of the device you can reach out and snap a selfie of yourself and your friends. There are buttons on the handle of the stick itself that will allow you to control the camera on your phone.

Phone Case

Phone cases aren’t just about looks and giving your phone personality, many of them are meant to perform a job and that is to protect your phone. Look for a case that will protect it from scratches, dents, and damage when dropped. The case could end up saving you hundreds of dollars’ worth of repairs.

Portable Chargers

Where it used to be that you were restricted to charging your device at home or in the car, today you’ve got the ability to carry around a portable charging bank. These are devices that you pre-charge so that if needed, you can use it while on the go to power your phone. They typically carry a couple of charges per portable charger, which also means it’s possible to charge more than one device at a time.

When shopping for these devices look for ones that claim to offer a rapid charge.

USB Flash Drives

Another must-have item is a USB flash drive. These tiny storage devices make it possible for you to take content from your phone and load it onto other devices such as a computer, a smart TV, a friend’s phone, etc. Think of it as your own portable hard drive. It also allows you to safely back up the content on your device.

Universal Gadgets

No matter what kind of phone you have, or the platform you are using, these five gadgets are absolute must-haves.
